The implementation of expf() explains how approximation in the range [0 - 0.34] is done. The comment describes the "Reme" algorithm for constructing the polynomial. This is a typo and should be the "Remez" algorithm. The remez algorithm (or minimax) is used to calculate the coefficients of polynomials in other implementations of exp(0 and log().

This implements a set of vectorized math routines to be used by the
compiler auto-vectorizer. Versions for vectors with 2 lanes up to
64 lanes (in powers of 2) are provided.
These routines are based on the scalar versions of the math routines in
libm/common, libm/math and libm/mathfp. They make extensive use of the GCC
C vector extensions and GCN-specific builtins in GCC.
As per the arm Procedure Call Standard for the Arm Architecture
section 6.1.2 [1], VFP registers s16-s31 (d8-d15, q4-q7) must be
preserved across subroutine calls.
The current setjmp/longjmp implementations preserve only the core
registers, with the jump buffer size too small to store the required
co-processor registers.
In accordance with the C Library ABI for the Arm Architecture
section 6.11 [2], this patch sets _JBTYPE to long long adjusting
_JBLEN to 20.
It also emits vfp load/store instructions depending on architectural
support, predicated at compile time on ACLE feature-test macros.

We have "Iconv" and "iconv" nodes which generates Iconv.html and
iconv.html files. On a case-insensitive filesystem, these collide.
Rename the "Iconv" node to match the chapter name that it's already
using to avoid the issue.
Until Cygwin 3.3.6, we define __LARGE64_FILES unconditionally, so we
were using the type __sFILE64 even for 64 bit. That was lazy and wrong.
so commit 2902b3a09e ("Cygwin: drop requirement to build newlib's
stdio64") tried to fix that.
Unfortunately this patch forgot to take the exposure of the typename
__sFILE64 in userspace into account. This leads to trouble in C++ due
to name mangling.
Commit 0f376ae220 tried to fix this by just renaming __sFILE to
__sFILE64 by using a macro. While __sFILE and __sFILE64 are the same
size, they are not exactly congruent.
To avoid backward compatibility problems, make sure to define FILE
as the real __sFILE64, and make sure that __sFILE is not defined at
all on Cygwin.

compatibility")

Cygwin's default locale is "C.UTF-8" as far as LC_CTYPE settings
are concerned. However, while __global_locale contains fixed
mbtowc and wctomb pointers, the lc_ctype_T pointer is still pointing
to _C_ctype_locale, representing the standard "C" locale.
The problem with this is that the codeset name as well as MB_CUR_MAX
is wrong.
Fix this by introducing a new lc_ctype_T structure called
_C_utf8_ctype_locale, setting the default codeset to "UTF-8" and
MB_CUR_MAX to 6. Use this as lc_ctype_T pointer in __global_locale
by default on Cygwin.

Call __builtin_gcn_get_stack_limit and __builtin_gcn_first_call_this_thread_p
to reduce dependency on some register/layout assumptions by using the new
GCC mainline (GCC 13) builtins, if they are available. If not, the existing
code is used.
During 'make man', makedocbook falsely reports "texinfo command
'@modifier' remains in output" while processing the setlocal(3) manpage,
which contains that literal string.
Move the check for unrecognized texinfo commands to before processing
'@@' (an escaped '@') in the texinfo source, and teach it to ignore
them.
Improve that check slightly, so it catches non-alphabetic texinfo
commands, of which there are few.
Now we don't have false positives, we can make unrecognized texinfo
commands fatal to manpage generation, rather than leaving them verbatim
in the generated manpage.
..., not just '#if defined(__CYGWIN__)'. (Exception: 'clog10l' which currently
indeed is for Cygwin only.)
This completes 2017-07-05 commit be3ca39474
"Fixed warnings for some long double complex methods" after Aditya Upadhyay's
work on importing "Long double complex methods" from NetBSD.
For example, this changes GCC/nvptx libgfortran 'configure' output as follows:
[...]
checking for ccosf... yes
checking for ccos... yes
checking for ccosl... [-no-]{+yes+}
[...]
..., and correspondingly GCC/nvptx 'nvptx-none/libgfortran/config.h' as
follows:
[...]
/* Define to 1 if you have the `ccosl' function. */
-/* #undef HAVE_CCOSL */
+#define HAVE_CCOSL 1
[...]
Similarly for 'ccoshl', 'cexpl', 'cpowl', 'csinl', 'csinhl', 'ctanl', 'ctanhl',
'cacoshl', 'cacosl', 'casinhl', 'catanhl'. ('conjl', 'cprojl' are not
currently being used in libgfortran.)
This in turn simplifies GCC/nvptx 'libgfortran/intrinsics/c99_functions.c'
compilation such that this files doesn't have to provide its own
"Implementation of various C99 functions" for those, when in fact they're
available in newlib libm.

Drop 'makedocbook --cache' (any dependency on the man-cache rule which
invokes that was dropped by the non-recursive make changes)
Instead, add some explicit locking which prevents processes colliding
over the file containing generated python code for the parser table.
The first attempt to support the 64-bit mode had two bugs:
1. The saved general-purpose register 31 value was overwritten with the saved
link register value.
2. The link register was saved and restored using 32-bit instructions.
Use 64-bit store/load instructions to save/restore the link register. Make
sure that the general-purpose register 31 and the link register storage areas
do not overlap.

sections as well, so that a cross-reference to the "Stubs" section

- add support for using sysconf to get page size in _mallocr.c via

- set flag in configure.host for arm and add a default sysconf implementation

In the incredibly unbelievable circumstance where _rs_init() fails to
allocate pages, don't call abort() because of corefile data leakage
concerns, but simply _exit(). The reasoning is _rs_init() will only fail
if someone finds a way to apply specific pressure against this failure
point, for the purpose of leaking information into a core which they can
read. We don't need a corefile in this instance to debug that. So take
this "lever" away from whoever in the future wants to do that.
In the nano version of malloc, when the last chunk is to be extended,
there is no need to acount for the header again as it's already taken
into account in the overall "alloc_size" at the beginning of the
function.

When using nano malloc and the remaning heap space is not big enough to
fullfill the allocation, malloc will attempt to merge the last chunk in
the free list with a new allocation in order to create a bigger chunk.
This is successful, but the chunk still remains in the free_list, so
any later call to malloc can give out the same region without it first
being freed.
Possible sequence to verify:
void *p1 = malloc(3000);
void *p2 = malloc(4000);
void *p3 = malloc(5000);
void *p4 = malloc(6000);
void *p5 = malloc(7000);
free(p2);
free(p4);
void *p6 = malloc(35000);
free(p6);
void *p7 = malloc(42000);
void *p8 = malloc(32000);
Without the change, p7 and p8 points to the same address.
Requirement, after malloc(35000), there is less than 42000 bytes
available on the heap.

This simple testcase:
locale_t st = newlocale(LC_ALL_MASK, "C", (locale_t)0);
locale_t st2 = newlocale(LC_CTYPE_MASK, "en_US.UTF-8", st);
is sufficient to reproduce a crash in _newlocale_r. After the first call
to newlocale, `st' points to __C_locale, which is const. When using `st'
as locale base in the second call, _newlocale_r tries to set pointers
inside base to NULL. This is bad if base is __C_locale, obviously.
Add a test to avoid trying to overwrite pointer values inside base if
base is __C_locale.

By default, Newlib uses a huge object of type struct _reent to store
thread-specific data. This object is returned by __getreent() if the
__DYNAMIC_REENT__ Newlib configuration option is defined.
The reentrancy structure contains for example errno and the standard input,
output, and error file streams. This means that if an application only uses
errno it has a dependency on the file stream support even if it does not use
it. This is an issue for lower end targets and applications which need to
qualify the software according to safety standards (for example ECSS-E-ST-40C,
ECSS-Q-ST-80C, IEC 61508, ISO 26262, DO-178, DO-330, DO-333).
If the new _REENT_THREAD_LOCAL configuration option is enabled, then struct
_reent is replaced by dedicated thread-local objects for each struct _reent
member. The thread-local objects are defined in translation units which use
the corresponding object.
In a follow up patch, struct _reent is optionally replaced by dedicated
thread-local objects. In this case,_REENT is optionally defined to NULL. Add
the _REENT_IS_NULL() macro to disable this check on demand.
Add a _REENT_SIG_FUNC() macro to encapsulate access to the
_sig_func member of struct reent. This will help to replace the
struct member with a thread-local storage object in a follow up
patch.
Add a _REENT_CVTBUF() macro to encapsulate access to the _cvtbuf
member of struct reent. This will help to replace the struct
member with a thread-local storage object in a follow up patch.
Add a _REENT_CVTLEN() macro to encapsulate access to the _cvtlen
member of struct reent. This will help to replace the struct
member with a thread-local storage object in a follow-up patch.
Add a _REENT_CLEANUP() macro to encapsulate access to the
__cleanup member of struct reent. This will help to replace the
struct member with a thread-local storage object in a follow up
patch.
Add a _REENT_LOCALE() macro to encapsulate access to the _locale
member of struct reent. This will help to replace the struct
member with a thread-local storage object in a follow up patch.
Add a _REENT_INC() macro to encapsulate access to the _inc member
of struct reent. This will help to replace the struct member with
a thread-local storage object in a follow up patch.
Add a _REENT_STDERR() macro to encapsulate access to the _stderr
member of struct reent. This will help to replace the struct
member with a thread-local storage object in a follow up patch.
